Let's Talk Bruh is a podcast on Black Masculinity. We have conversations on mental health/therapy, black male privilege, vulnerability, patriarchy's impact on black women, friendship, sex and much more with a type of vulnerability rarely heard in the podcast space.

Our conversations are designed to create a space where Black Men can have deeper conversations, vent, laugh, cry, celebrate each other AND call each other for problematic behavior. With each episode we try to do our part in considering and suggesting new visions of black masculinity.

Tune in every Wednesday.

LTB is back with the help from a couple of our good friends Bemo Brown, Nalo Zidan and Quay Weston.

We discuss Jay-Z's recent comments about words like "capitalist" being made up, full quote below:

In response to a question from Rob Markman about his verse, Hov said, "We not falling for that tricknology, whatever the public puts out there now. Before it was the american dream, pull yourself up by the bootstraps, you can make it in america. All these lies that america told us our whole life and then when we start getting it they try to lock us out of it. They start inventing words like capitalist and things like that. We've been called nigger and monkey. So those words yall come up with, yall gotta come with stronger words."

Watch The State of Black Masculinity Pt. 2 on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Ue16pZoVeTs

It's been a minute since we hit yall with the State of Black Masculinity Pt. 1. 2 years ago to be exact. In many ways it's a completely different world. As we enter year 3 of the pandemic, our lives, to varying degrees, have been flipped turned upside down. But in some ways, Black masculinity and the livelihoods of Black folks have remained unchanged.

In today's episode we talk about living through the pandemic, the impact of white supremacy and state violence on us and we discuss a few names you may or may not have heard about from Boosie, to Dave Chappelle to Kevin Samuels.

We close the show talking about what divesting from patriarchy looks like for us. We've all been indoctrinated into a system of patriarchy and toxic masculinity, but what does it look like to imagine alternatives for Black men? What does that work of unlearning harmful behaviors and replacing them with new ones look like? What lies on the other side of patriarchy for Black men?

Fellas, are you happy? Are you good? You sure bruh?

No foreal, let’s sit with this for a minute. Patriarchy at an early age forces us to lie. Lie to others of course, but the first lie we tell is to ourselves. We say we’re good when we’re not. We suppress our feelings and emotions. We minimize both our pain and our joy and find it difficult to name our feelings when they even come up. Point blank, patriarchy teaches us to deny our own humanity and suffer in silence because that’s” just what it means to be a man” and “that’s what men do”

But what if we could reclaim our feelings, emotions and the fullness of our humanity? What if instead of "boys don’t cry" we told each other “you are enough just the way you are” or "your emotions and feelings are valid bro." In this episode we take a look at how patriarchy and toxic masculinity has impacted our mental health.

We talk about why Black men have a suicide rate 3 times higher than other demographic groups. We also discuss how we can heal the wounds from patriarchy and reclaim our humanity.

Watch Black Men Talking About Love on YouTube

Part 1 - Brotherhood Between Straight & Queer Black Men https://youtu.be/xj4P5mFGQdc

What do we mean when we say brotherly love? Who are we including that phrase? Are all Black men included or only some? This episode explores what love can look like between Black men.

We also unpack how homophobia has prevented us from establishing deeper connections with each other as Black men. And for those of us who are straight, what has that unlearning process looked like and how has it shown up with our other straight male friends?

Patriarchy and toxic masculinity require us to do and be several things, but love is rarely part of that equation. So what happens when we make love a requirement for ourselves as Black men and boys?

Part 2 - Are You Good at Being Vulnerable? https://youtu.be/NPuT_t_Nx8U

What does it mean to be vulnerable? Are you good at it? Do you like being vulnerable? For many of us, embracing vulnerability is a foreign concept. It's uncomfortable and frankly at times it can be scary as hell. As men, we've been taught to reject vulnerability. It's looked at as a sign of weakness or softness. But we know that's not true. To be vulnerable is an act of courage. To be vulnerable is also an act of self love. It's an act of self acceptance.

This is Part 2 of our conversation, "Black Men Talking About Love" and we also unpack what love means for us. We share what our self love game looks like. We attempt to define what love is. We live in a world where Black boys and men aren't typically associated with love so we try to envision a world that makes love a requirement for Black men and boys instead of patriarchy.

In the first 20 minutes of today's episode we tackle a few Black Card Revoked Questions along with some questions from the My Therapy Cards for Black men deck.

Black men, when was the last time you felt completely free during a sexual experience?

It’s okay if you’ve never felt that way. Patriarchy teaches us to prioritize power, control and performance in sexual experiences which can lead to wack sex at best and harmful consent at worst.

But when we divest from patriarchy, we can begin to focus on pleasure instead of performance. Connection instead of control. Vulnerability / intimacy instead of power. Let's get free...

Attention! This is not your typical Let's Talk Bruh episode!

On this week's episode we collaborated with David Ryan Castro-Harris, the Host of This Restorative Justice Life Podcast, for a conversation on restorative justice and accountability. We talk to David during Part 1 of our collaboration about his work with restorative justice and what that looks like. When you finish listening to Part 1, go over to This Restorative Justice Life Podcast for Part 2 where we get a little more personal with the times we've been held accountable for some of the harm we've committed in relationships and in our community. Got it? Ight bet, let's get it then.
